03 Aug Do you sleep like a Log, or is freefalling more your style?
And when I say sleep like a log, it is not in reference to how heavily you sleep but what position you sleep in….. Now, if we are talking about sleep positions, than what on earth is the freefall style???
Apparently, there are six distinctive styles of sleeping that can explain your personality…So what is your sleeping style/s saying about you?
Log: Sleeping on your side with both arms down.
People who have a preference for this position are classed as very sociable and trusting, but unfortunately this can sometimes be to the point of gullibility. To sum it up, easy-going, trustworthy and naive. Approximately 15 % of people sleep like a log.
Foetal: Sleeping on your side with your back slightly curved and legs curled up.
Believe it or not, about 41% of people sleep in this position and are considered to be tough on the outside but sensitive at heart; shy, over thinking, a worrier, but quick to warm up. It appears to be the common favourite position for women who are twice as likely to curl up to go to sleep then men.
Freefall: Sleeping on your belly with arms under or wrapped around a pillow with head turned to the side.
It appears if you sleep like this you could be considered brash and outgoing but find it difficult to cope with personal criticism; often anxious and sensitive, however you like to be in control. It’s reported only 7% of people sleep style it in freefall!
Starfish: Sleeping on your back with arms up near your head or pillow.
Friendly, generous, a good listener who likes to help whenever needed describes the starfish sleepers. Surprisingly, this is the least favourite sleep position, representing only 5% of sleepers. Due to mainly being on ones back, this position may lead to snoring, guaranteed not to be popular with your bed partner.
Yearner: Sleeping on your side with both arms stretched out in front of you.
A suspicious person with a very rational approach to life, about 13% of people are Yearner sleepers. Open minded but cynical and stubborn about discussions they have made. To sum it up, slow decision maker, suspicious, cynical.
Soldier: Sleeping on your back with both arms down and close to the body.
A close call to Starfishing, 8% of people prefer to sleep like a Soldier. Quiet and reserved but loathes noisy social scenes and thus can be prickly. This position may also lead to snoring.
